A80754	The covenant of God with Abraham, opened. Wherein I. The duty of infant-baptism is cleared. II. Something added concerning the Sabbath, and the nature and increase of the kingdome of Christ. Together with a short discourse concerning the manifestations of God unto his people in the last dayes. Wherein is shewed the manner of the spirits work therein to be in the use of ordinary gifts, not by extraordinary revelations. / By William Carter minister of the gospel in London.	Carter, William, 1605-1658.	1654 (1654)	Wing C679; Thomason E811_5; ESTC R207606	118,861	192

much_o more_o may_v be_v say_v from_o these_o two_o chapter_n for_o the_o christian_a sabbath_n but_o i_o will_v not_o stay_v too_o long_o in_o my_o passage_n to_o my_o text._n thus_o much_o be_v
